How to get the best rental experience:

Finding the best value:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in Ocean Isle Beach. To find the most suitable rental home within your budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at Southport restaurants, tours, and activities.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Many management companies supply Southport area travel guide magazines which include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Choosing and booking the best Southport vacation home:

• Choose your dates and budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Canal Home- The Beach Cottage has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property manager about pets before booking.
• Does your family require specific amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

Tips for a great stay:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Document any issues with the property at check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be helpful if a dispute arises.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great source for finding the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a fantastic time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
